An easy win against a weak opponent didn’t offer much of a challenge to Notre Dame on Saturday. However, this week’s road clash against the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets should fit that bill, with the Irish roughly favored by eight points. This game will have a raucous opposing crowd crammed into the domed Mercedes Benz Stadium.
Tech is coming off two wins but needed some last-minute heroics to win over North Carolina on Saturday to raise its mark to 5-2. The Yellow Jackets have a strong running game that needs to be held in check. In addition, Notre Dame would like to mimic the start of its last road game, the slaughter at Purdue.
